No Adobe on the new lapt, no Flash. Really, what is this?

Choir's been slightly disastrous, with him making us do solo warm-ups in front of the whole choir last Thursday. Good thing he decided that the humiliation was enough and targeted the tenors and basses last night instead.

School hasn't been all that great. I can't express my immense detest for this thing called the discussion board here, but ya, I think you get my drift.

If Karma strikes, I think I'd be quite doomed. It isn't anything as severe as setting fire to someone's place or stabbing someone with a knife. It's not physical pain caused, and I do not know the severity of the damage done. But I guess it would suffice to say that it is the kind of Karma that Sherlin always talked about, back when we were still in Poly, so I guess only the clique will know what I'm talking about. Or don't you? Haha!

What are the odds of wearing a new tee to school, to find a friend wearing the exact same tee =.=

Lots of readings to be done.
Lots of notes to be printed.
Lots of memory space needed.
Lots of $ spent.

Choir last night was fun :) Made new friends, and had very late ice-breakers (at 8p.m.) and an even later welcome tea.
Suddenly, I'm really thankful for having only 2-hr lectures on Tues and Fri cuz' choir ends at 9++ till 10+ on both Mon and Thurs, which means by the time I get home, it's close to/past midnight.
Being a Sop1 kills my voice, literally. I'm waiting for that one fateful day they suddenly realise I'm screeching my lungs out and place me under Sop2 or Alto. But by then, they'd probably decide they don't want me anymore and kick me out! Haha! But we heard the others during sectionals and are glad we got the better part of the deal, at least when it comes to Christmas Carols.

French is a really tough language =/ Inanimate objects have genders, and there are 21 tenses. A friend decided she couldn't cope and dropped the module, so I was compelled to go befriend some others and to my surprise, this other girl seated beside me happens to be an ex-schmate! Haha, the world's really small.

There's this pretty bunch of bangles from Aldo (I think) that I've been thinking of getting. But the 5, costing $35, works up to $7 for each. But such wants should be placed at the end of the list, behind texts and all other school-related needs. :(

Driving slots not avail till end of month. Bummer. Don't know if I'll be able to get the license before the end of the year.

Yesterday was -bleh-. My printer jammed before I printed out my lecture notes/ I felt cheated queueing for lapt/ my appeal for my elective was rejected.

Then, I realise I've been overly dependent on people like Dajie back in NP. =.= I ought to learn to be more INDEPENDENT. vair hard.

I trembled and fumbled during audition on Wed and was stumped by an Ab. Audition room wasn't soundproof so it was kind of embarrassing. It was funny and amazing how people in the waiting room seem to just click, and "good luck!"s could be heard whenever someone's name got called. And yes, I made new acquaintances again. =)

The week has been a mad rush to get lapts before the end of IT fair/ to get modules (which will finally make my timetable complete) before this coming Sunday.

I can't get down to studying at all - worrying.
But I will, I just need some time I guess, after familiarizing myself with the tutorial rooms and lecture theatres to go to.

Hello!


I'm still very much in the holiday-mood; and YES!, I can hardly believe I'm a Psych undergrad.


It feels so unreal, even though I've, (up till now,)

-stared the laptop and still am unable to find a vacancy for the elective I want
-spent 4 hours a day, shuttling between school and home, in the buses and trains
-attended lectures that I can hardly grasp


I've got new friends! :) That would be something worth celebrating. But you know with the wacky system for timetabling in Uni, it's hard to keep your friends with you. So I'll probably be back to square one being the lone ranger in electives and the many semesters to come, and hopefully make new friends again!

To date, I've spent about $150+++ on my texts, and would probably throw in another $2080 for a new laptop.
There's an audition to go to tomorrow and I hope not to embarrass myself. Haha...

The wallet's of no use at all going out with 180. All expenses paid, including transportation.

"If You Could See Me Now" by Cecelia Ahern (author of PS, I Love You) beckons! Paying $18.19 for 2 books was a steal! :))

Still contemplating about getting a Fujitsu; but my baby X40 shut down on me twice over yesterday.

Oh yes, and I feel like watching Ah Mei's concert. Heh.
